In line links to Wikipedia

I've noticed that you have edited the vaccine controversies article to have an in-line link to Wikipedia. Is there any particular reason for that edit? J.A.R.N.Y.🗣 15:48, 18 May 2018 (UTC)

@Just A Regular New Yorker:. Yes. I think it looks better that way. The regular Wikipedia link template, which appears on the right, was designed to accompany a bunch of other links that all appear on the left. If there aren't any other external links, which is so often the case here on Wikiquote, using the regular Wikipedia link template means there's a big white gap at the bottom of the page with nothing in it. I think that looks bad. But it's really just a matter of personal taste. If you want to change it back again, go right ahead. I'm not going to get into an edit war about it.

Thanks. I’m relatively new to Wikiquote, so I was hoping to get some insight into this practice. I do agree with your point, and I won’t revert the edit in the future. J.A.R.N.Y.🗣 03:03, 22 May 2018 (UTC)
